Deep Cleaning Records With Steam?

On my Perfection , tubing running from the heating unit to the nozzel is composed of metal, plastic encases the small tubing finishing off the blunt nozzel unit, partly recessed, that then acts as a base for attachment of the conical unit. T, we are done. Go play in another sand-box , come back with a better invention.

T : I do not use any attachment, making adjustments with my gloved hand and the angle I hold the Lp.

I am open to using the conical attachment should I be able to preclean the cone to a degree that the cone stops feeling "slick" to the touch.

For me , the greater concern are the vinyl hoses that reek of a chemical smell. My concern is that smell portends of chemicals that may be deposited on newly cleaned vinyl with unknown , long-trem consequences. In previous posts, we learned that "last" & "sound guard" record wear preventatives actually made LPs unplayable 10-15 years after the application . I have reason to be concerned that the vinyl chemicals contained in the hoses could have unintended consequences similar to "Last","Soundguard" and "Armor All".
